So be aware that you will NOT be got credited for some types of flights operated by Start Alliance members even if you have valid Mileage Plus account with United.

Your issue is with LH, it is their decision. They made the change a coupe of years ago.

The best appraoch is to research the mileage rule at the program site, such as for MP partner earnings
